Together with a wonderful young lady and with one of the world’s most sophisticated producers of bicycle components we tackled an old problem.
Rear racks of uncompromising functionality and beauty, can they really exist? – Well,now they do.
Designed by the eyes and brain behind the well-known blog Lovely Bicycle! and produced by Tubus Carrier Systems in Germany, we are thrilled to introduce the BELLA CIAO “Superba” rear rack.
In her own words the author of Lovely Bicycle! describes her inspiration: “Having fallen in love with the elegant curves of my Bella Ciao, I could not bear to clutter it up with a clunky rear rack. I envisioned a rack that was minimalist and lightweight, yet evoked the curved rear carriers found on vintage continental European bicycles.
After some prototyping, the Superba rack was born - a utilitarian classic that harmonizes with the clean lines of Bella Ciao bicycles. “
And a utilitarian classic indeed it is. Minimalist, lightweight and with a loading
capacity of 25kg!
Content with the result of our collaboration Lovely Bicycle! suggested the name

Beautiful full length carbon fibre mudguards. These guards are very stiff, light and quiet in use. Hand made in England.
Only 350 grammes for the pair (35mm) - Including all fittings to mount to any road frame that has dedicated threaded mounts. They wrap around the tyres so that there is no aerodynamic drag to speak of. We normally supply them with black stays and fittings, but if you prefer silver, let us know at time of placing your order.
There is no reason not to buy them. Or you can ruin your clothes and have a filthy bike whenever it rains!
The mounting system used means that they do not rattle - ever.
They are much stronger than plastic mudguards and will not crack or shatter.More info & order
